I've been working on this question but just can't crack it. It is as follows.
Using d y d x = a x 2 + y 2 + b y b x where y(1)=0
and by letting v = y x transform the above differential equation to an equation in v and x. Find the implicit solution of the resulting separable equation. Then use the relationship y=xv to obtain y + x 2 + y 2 = x a b + 1
I've tried separate the upper terms into two fractions which makes the second term simply b y b x = v but I am still left with the nasty square root with the y on the inside and I can't shift it easily to solve as a first order DE. Also I was thinking about solving it as a linear first order ODE but we have a squared term. Sorry about formatting as well, first time posting a question.

Just as you did
d y d x = a x 2 + y 2 + b y b x
Let
y = x v y = v + x v
making the equation to be
x v = a b 1 + v 2
which is separable
d x x = b a d v 1 + v 2
making
log ( x ) + C = b a sinh 1 ( v )
So
v = sinh ( a b log ( x ) + C ) y = x sinh ( a b log ( x ) + C )
